Windy City Gridiron

● By Jacob Infante
You know the drill. This is going to be a doozy, so I’ll spare you the long-winded introduction. The Chicago Bears have a lot of resources at their disposal this coming offseason through the 2024 NFL Draft and their cap space in free agency. They also face major decisions like the status of head coach Matt Eberflus, quarterback Justin Fields and even general manager Ryan Poles. To run a fun simulation of what an offseason could look like, I’ve made a mock offseason for the Bears with new coaching hires, roster cuts, extensions, free agency signings, and draft selections. I personally don’t feel comfortable decidedly claiming Fields as the quarterback of the future right now, but there are still enough games in the season where he could do so if he plays well. Because of this, I’m running two mock drafts in this extravaganza: one with Justin Fields sticking around as Chicago’s quarterback, and one having traded him away. Let’s roll.
